At the top of your movie collection under Collection Options you can select the "Recently Added" option. That will put your collection in descending order of when you added the titles, but it still won't show you the date it was added to your collection.

Good suggestions above, I'll look into them shortly.

Allowed avatar size increased quite a bit.

Thinking out loud here (I do that a lot)...how about creating a HT Gallery devoted to Computer HT's. I'm not talking HTPC setups whereby one streams into a HT setup, but rather Desktop HT systems. I've seen a number of those around. Like I said, just thinking out loud!

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/search.php

Can we get "Video Resolution" search along with the others on there?

Like if we search in the following Video Resolutions we'll get:

1080i - Casshern
1080p - Pulp Fiction
720p - Tenacious D: The Complete Master Works 2

Added!

You can now sort your BD collection with the following options:

• Sort by recently added
• Sort by recently added (desc) <-- reversed order
• Sort by recently watched
• Sort by recently watched (desc) <-- reversed order

You can now add comments to your favorites listings and arrange the display order as you would like it:

I enjoyed that I just added a digibook, regular bluray, or even a steelbook in my collection and I could see what I added in order. Now, the "Sort by recently added" puts my collection in order but in my different folders. If I didn't add anything to my digibook collection in the pass weeks it would still show me what I last added to that folder instead of the actually order of what I actually added. Could we put that back in our functions...Just asking. Thanks.

Good point, fixed! Thanks for reporting

Will be done soon

Correct.

In boxsets with several films, an improvement will be that you can add what each individual film have either on a dual layer, single layer, 25GB, and 50GB.

An example, some films in a boxset only have 25GB on a single layer and the rest is on a 50GB dual layer. But, as it is now, it could only say 5-50GB BDs. Also just a single film should have the option of choosing if it is on single or dual layer. You currently can`t do that now.

I hope i made my point.

This would be helpful especially for people who just got into HD/Blu-rays reading reviews about video quality here.

background noise
noise
aliasing
line shimmering
edge enhancement
motion blurring
banding (though there is a post/thread about this)

When I google "background noise" all I get is stuff that is audio related. A visual, examples or better description would certainly help matters.
Since Blu-ray.com is international I would also think that foreigners and people whose first language isn't English would appreciate such FAQ.

Bug fixed! Thanks a lot for reporting

Whenever this happens it's because the CDN (Content Delivery Network) hasn't had time to distribute the updated image to all cache servers around the world yet. Just wait and it should pop up soon

The new tabs on my profile page are bumping into the right side navigation column.

Go to Site Preferences and at the top where it says Site Width select Auto Detect... Your screen looks a little bunched up the way you have it...

I've reviewed my subwoofers yesterday, and I found out it takes about 24 hours to reflect and show on your avatar/collection screen.

Regarding Theatrical & Unrated versions, when a Blu-ray contains both which version should be featured/mentioned in the Database first?
For example Paranormal Activity 2 only shows its R-Rated Theatrical status, ignoring the Unrated Director's Cut which is also included on the disk.

Paranormal Activity 2
Paramount Pictures | 2010 | 98 mins | Rated R | Feb 08, 2011

Then you get a hybrid like this:

Drag Me to Hell
Unrated & Theatrical Cuts
Universal Studios | 2009 | 99 mins | Rated PG-13 | Oct 13, 2009

or this, ignoring the included Theatrical version:

Hot Tub Time Machine
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer | 2010 | 100 mins | Unrated | Jun 29, 2010

Seems kind of messy and all over the place. Personally I'd like to see unrated/extended versions getting first dips with a note that the theatrical version is also included.

Opinions?

The Alien anthology does not appear to be able to take fans, it this because the fan function does not apply to boxsets?

Would be nice to be able to show this.
